Will AI And Robotics Revolutionize Agriculture?

As the world’s population growth requires more food production, problems with weather, fuel costs, labor shortages, and increasing cost of supplies threatens to limit agricultural productivity and increase prices.  What to do?  Some say robotics and artificial intelligence.

Drones and ground-based robots may be able to eliminate weeds, plant crops, gather needed data, diagnose plant diseases, and increase farm productivity while reducing costs and risk.  The term coined to describe this is “precision agriculture”.  It may cause us to rethink our entire agricultural system.

Although the data is thin, advocates say robotics and AI will soon revolutionize agriculture
